This may seem like a stupid question but if I don't ask I'll never know.
What is the difference in % terms between the upper and lower wing as regards span and chord?
Any help anyone can offer would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance folks.
Mike

Thanks for that matey but that much I'd already got. Not being any good at maths (any more than 10 I have to remove my shoes and socks, more than 20 and I reach for the plastic brain:) ) I was hoping someone could tell me the difference as a percentage.

Ok Mike,

the lower wing has only a size of 64.3 % compared with the upper wing surface
- or -
the lower wing surface is smaller 35.7% than the upper wing surface. ;)
